You may see a lot of people posting pictures showing that they have made millions in cryptocurrency, especially with smaller, unknown coins. But here's the thing:

Photos can lie

Anyone can fake a photo or fake numbers. Just because someone posts a screenshot doesn't mean they actually made that much money.

What about money?

Let's say they actually made millions with only $3 million worth of the coin available for trading (that's what we call liquidity). Here's where things get tricky:

Problem of selling

If many people try to sell at the same time, the price of the coin will fall. If you want to turn those millions into real money, you may end up selling it for much less.

Not enough cash

Imagine you have a coin worth $1 million on paper, but there's only $3 million available for everyone. If you try to sell your $1 million, there won't be enough money in the market to buy it all at once without the price collapsing.

Be skeptical

When you see someone claiming to have made a lot of money on a coin with low liquidity, think twice. Can they really turn these crypto coins into real money with such low liquidity?

The big picture

Remember, not everyone can cash out millions from a small coin. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

So always question those profit screenshots. Real profits in cryptocurrency, especially from smaller coins, are much harder to realize than what flashy images might suggest. Always do your homework and think about how realistic it would be to actually cash out.
